Some off-day guessing about how to manage this stretch:

6/26 - 6/28 CHC: Miz, Harrison, Woodruff. The article about this weekend's probables says that Gasser is available for some innings before rejoining the rotation in the Cincy series, which is ... confusing if they're really doing a 5-man rotation. More logically, they'd move one of Sproat/Drohan/Gasser to long relief and out of the rotation.

6/29-7/2 CIN: Guessing Sproat, Drohan, (Gasser?), Miz. I've already blown the 5-man rotation here, but I'd also guess that Drohan gets moved to long relief in the next series.

7/3-5 @ARI: Harrison, Woodruff, Sproat - or Henderson? If Henderson does come up (and this would be on the early side), I would think Sproat or Drohan go down. If it's Sproat, let him pitch this one and then go down

7/6, 7/7 x2, 7/8, and 7/9 @ STL: Gasser (possibly Henderson pushes in here, which moves everyone back a day) on the 6th and Miz for one of the games on the 7th. The other game? Yeah, too early to tell what the situation will be and who they call up - maybe Crow. The last two might be Harrison and Woodruff, each on 4 days rest.

7/10-12 @PIT If Miz does pitch on the 7th, then Sunday the 12th would be his spot - not ideal if he's going to throw an inning at the ASG. If you go back to the Cincy series and throw him in game 3, then he could go on game one of the Cards series and Saturday of this series

Doesn’t seem likely to me that they will send Sproat down…….they seem pretty committed to developing him up here. 
 

If/when Henderson is ready I would assume Gasser goes back down but we have some time before that decision has to be made.

That's probably just me favoring Gasser as he seems the more "established" at the big-league level. I was surprised the Brewers weren't using him as the starter on Sunday. It's not a clear-cut decision about who should be the 5th starter.
